GCSB ‘media’ coverage

It is rather unfortunate that given the pretensions of the media in NZ , see commentary by many in media re Vance/Dunne and the ‘ invasion’ of privacy claimed, that so much coverage of the GCSB matter has been blatantly partisan and one sided. There has been little, if any, rational coverage of the legislation and why it might be needed.

A typical example was some vox pop reporting on National Radio where the most outrageous comments by people were not explained or set in context. The ‘ reporting’ if one can call it such was dreadful.
